Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install code-clone-detection

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent combines PMD CPD, which finds exact duplicates, with Semgrep, which flags repeated patterns. It ranks the findings by severity, then proposes shared functions once you approve. You get a duplicate report and a refactoring checked against the tests.
